RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Rogers Acquires ShawShould have emphasized the control I was referring to is share based or acquisition control. In the event Audet tried to sell or merge with a larger telecom common share holders would have a vote which Rogers could be against and/or counter offer.
I suspect if the Shaw/Rogers merger goes through it would likely be with the condition freedom would have to be sold. All speculative at the moment as to who it could be sold to.
You are right about the wireless assets a public plan would be nice but I suspect behind the scenes CCA could be pricing out what supplier they would use.
Even if you value the spectrum as 0 being a 300m loss or under $10 a share impact. The sell off seems to be over done at $20 a share. The past two quarters have not been far below expectations. Buybacks have continued up to 120 and I couldn't imagine that management is going to stop with them without an alternative use of capital (acquisition, or cellular infrastructure being quickly built).
